The Short XC Spike Guide 2024

[@supwell]

that cielo flyx looks so good. also 5:03 i agree man - people need to stop sleeping on brooks

[@isaacqsnl]

fr bro, I just finished my track season in brooks spikes and they felt so responsive and light, the only thing that makes me not want to buy more of them is because the spikes are irreplaceable

[@Sgtalex-iv6eo]

This channel is very underrated

[@zr7gaming256]

Needs more updates more often

[@SupwellTrack]

Agreed 🫡

[@TylenSnodgrass]

I run in metaspeed LD for XC, the best xc spikes ever.

[@Justarunnr]

This such a Yale fit loll… good video tho keep it up king. Killin it

[@Carlosediaz543]

Love the content this channel is amazing by the way.

[@David-q2z9z]

The Cloudspike xc you mentioned was just dropped on their website

[@SupwellTrack]

Oh wow thanks for letting me know. It must've just dropped! I didn't see it when I was doing links lol. I'll cover it better in the longer review

[@MrEirik3000]

Would be cool if you got your hands on the On Cloudspike Amplius, and compared it to the On Cloudspike 10000m. I have only used the Dragonfly, but I am considering the On Amplius or 10000m.

[@SupwellTrack]

Just got the citius in but I’m actually injured rn and not running. Any questions I can answer for you now though?

[@MrEirik3000]

@@SupwellTrack what are the differences between the Cloudspike 1500m and the Citius? If the new spikes are very similar to the old ones I might consider the 10000m, just because they are a tiny bit cheaper

[@SupwellTrack]

@@MrEirik3000 So main differences I can tell so far is that the foam feels a lot softer underfoot. Amplius seems to be lighter and more like the 10000m. Citius has more foam but both have plates that are very rigid. The toe box is also much bigger so I’d recommend going down half a size

[@SupwellTrack]

Oh also stack height is higher on both compared to the 10000m

[@Andrew_Dirks]

You got to try the dragonfly 2, it’s just feels like if the dragonfly met the flyx, it has the perfect amount of foam and the plate is a bit more stiff than the original, it’s just kinda a flyx without all the stack

[@cadenmontini6811]

That sounds amazing ngl. Might cave for the new blueprint ones

[@Andrew_Dirks]

@@cadenmontini6811 you can get them at dicks so you can try them in store and if you don’t like the feel you don’t have to get them but I had to get them because they’ll probably sell out of the colorway before my track season rolls around

[@Leafygreen41]

Would the dragonfly 2s be good for xc? The thing holding me back is the only 4 spikes

[@Andrew_Dirks]

@@Leafygreen41 they’ll probably be fine as long as you aren’t on any crazy courses, the have small bumps along the plate which may help a bit too

[@Carlosediaz543]

Do you guys run in under armor shoes and spikes? I pretty much run 90% of my miles in the Under armor infinite pro breeze and love them. would highly recommended them and Heard the shakedown Spike is amazing as well.

[@SupwellTrack]

As an under armor sponsored school yes. I had the original velociti elite and it was extremely underwhelming. I think we’ll get a bunch of the new stuff next year so very excited to see what under armor has been working on.

[@supwell]

lets goooo

[@PCYdan]

Do you think its okay to run xc courses with track spikes?

[@SupwellTrack]

Yeah for sure, although if they course is super rocky or muddy I would use caution

[@Leafygreen41]

Damn I’m lowkey between dragonfly 1-2 or on cloud 10k or xc version, as someone whose only worn Nike xc spikes or dragonfly’s does anyone have recommendations

[@SupwellTrack]

I’d go dragonfly 1 or cloud 10k but on’s about to drop some new spikes too👀 I’d steer clear of the on xc spikes unless you don’t want a plated feel though

[@Leafygreen41]

@@SupwellTrack new on spikes look tuff don’t know how they’re gonna get better then 10k version tho

[@SupwellTrack]

Fr I’m probably going to try to get the citius so watch out for a review 👀

[@aSkibidiRunner]

CLOUDSPIKE 🔛🔝

[@SupwellTrack]

Ran in the citius and they are officially the best spike in my opinion

[@aSkibidiRunner]

@@SupwellTrack are they even better than the draginfl 2/ elite??? im not sure what to get for xc this season

[@aSkibidiRunner]

@@SupwellTrack do u know wich is mroe agressive
